Con-Val is traditionally one of the better teams in the division. They?re a team we haven?t beaten in years. Our goal this year is to get to that final game and this was a big step in the right direction. |
I thought we came out flat and it cost us. Little things like that show up at the end of the game. It was a non-league game so I was able to play everybody. From that perspective, I?m happy about it. |
I told (Mayo) before the game, if we win this game tonight it?s going to be a 5-4 or a 6-5 game. That?s how we have to win games this year. We know it, and we did it. |
It?s a big win because we knew we had to win with defense and good possessions. We set the game plan and the kids took it and went with it. |
Skill-wise, we?re much better than we were a year ago. But on the other side of that, we?re younger. So we don?t quite know what we have until we get out there. The great thing is we have solid senior leaders on this team. |
The two goals at the beginning of the game hurt us, and the goals at the end of the half hurt us, and that was the difference. |
